Chapter 1143 - 565: Love’s Torment? No News
"Hello Mr. Luo, I’m Inspector Situ from Hong Kong Island’s First Police Station!"
Seeing the other party nodding and smiling at him, filled with excitement and a flushed face.
Luo Fei suddenly remembered something and nodded in response.
"Oh, so you’re Inspector Situ?"
"Yes, Mr. Luo. We’ve spoken a few times before, and I had my team actively cooperate with your investigation. It’s truly delightful to have you here on Hong Kong Island. It’s indeed an honor for me."
Despite the other party’s excitement.
Luo Fei maintained a calm and indifferent face as he spoke.
"Inspector Situ, you’re too kind. I’ve also heard about your impressive work at the Hong Kong Island Police Station, especially with the new developments in recent years. You’ve really achieved remarkable results since you took office as an inspector—truly impressive."
"Mr. Luo, to be frank, we currently have a few particularly challenging cases here. Your visit to Hong Kong Island can certainly serve as an exemplary experience for many of our officers."
Inspector Situ spoke with modesty and seriousness on his face.
Luo Fei listened and calmly replied.
"Inspector Situ, if there are any particularly tricky cases here that remain unsolved, feel free to let me know."
"If I can be of any assistance, I won’t hesitate to help."
Luo Fei’s words made Inspector Situ a bit embarrassed.
"Mr. Luo, your words make me feel a bit ashamed."
Seeing Inspector Situ was somewhat flushed.
He even forced a smile at this moment.
Clearly embarrassed.
Luo Fei gave a light smile in return.
"Inspector Situ, let’s head to the station. Additionally, I’ve heard that recently there have been frequent occurrences of cybercrime, including fraudulent activities. This seems to have become an unavoidable prominent issue in the new era?"
Luo Fei’s words.
Also made Inspector Situ somewhat embarrassed.
"Mr. Luo, so you already know?"
Noticed Inspector Situ’s embarrassment.
He even forced a smile at this point.
Clearly embarrassed.
Luo Fei remained unconcerned.
"Indeed. Since we decided to come to Hong Kong Island, it’s essential to conduct preliminary investigations to be prepared."
Luo Fei’s words made Inspector Situ feel even more embarrassed.
Because he was aware of Luo Fei’s temperament.
And knew that once he took initiative to investigate a case.
It meant.
He would meticulously scrutinize every detail of the case.
Even uncover some unknown or undisclosed details.
This realization left Inspector Situ feeling awkward.
"Mr. Luo, to be honest, we’ve recently apprehended some criminals. And they were operating as a syndicate."
It turned out, Inspector Situ had also noticed.
A new form of fraud was becoming prevalent on Hong Kong Island.
Many people started live streaming, using beauty filters to disguise as beautiful women, and asked fans for rewards.
But in reality, many of them were using masks.
Or makeup techniques, wearing wigs.
As long as one was somewhat slim.
Even a man could disguise as a woman.
And because this type of fraud often skirts the edge of legality online.
Many victims are willing to be deceived.
Or even if they are deceived, they have to accept it.
"Mr. Luo, we’ve managed to catch some of these cases. However, most victims prefer to keep silent, refusing to admit they’re cheated, fearing it would be too embarrassing."
"Therefore, although we’ve investigated some cases, we are sure that there are still many victims enduring quietly."
Listening to the other’s patient explanation.
Luo Fei nodded.
"Inspector Situ, I understand the general situation. But I have urgent matters to attend to, so I must handle my pending case first. If your side uncovers other results, please contact me immediately."
"Alright, Mr. Luo, travel safely. If you need anything, just call on us. My team has already prepared in advance, ready whenever you require assistance."
After a while.
As Luo Fei and Ji Bing arrived together at an impressive beachfront mansion, gazing at the adjacent golf course.
He Jiayun’s eyes widened.
"Wow, this house is incredibly large!"
He Jiayun knew well that Hong Kong Island is densely populated and land is extremely valuable.
Hence the saying, ’making do within a snail’s shell.’
And to have such a mansion in such a place.
The homeowner’s financial capability was apparent.
"May I ask which officer are you looking for? Did you have an advance appointment?"
At that moment.
A middle-aged man initiated an inquiry.
Luo Fei explained their purpose.
"Sir, we’re here to investigate a case. The main subject is the daughter of the homeowner, Wu Meilian."
Upon hearing Luo Fei’s proposal.
The other party fixed his gaze on Luo Fei for a moment.
"Officers, wait a moment, I’ll contact the madam for you."
As he spoke, he took the phone and moved aside.
His expression was evidently excited, even holding the phone, his hand was trembling.
"Madam, finally, the police are here to investigate the young lady’s case!"
"...It’s true, I’m not lying to you!"
After a while.
As the middle-aged man hung up the phone.
He walked quickly towards Luo Fei.
Cheerfully informing him.
"Officer, come on in. Madam is waiting inside."
The middle-aged man’s words.
Left Luo Fei a bit surprised.
And after a moment.
As Luo Fei, Ji Bing, and others entered the mansion.
An elegant elderly lady awaited them.
"Hello, officers, I am Li Wanzhi, Wu Meilian’s mother. I’m quite thrilled that you’re here to investigate my daughter’s case."
Observing her sincerity and glowing face.
Luo Fei smiled as well.
"Hello, ma’am, we’re members of the task force from Changli City."
"We came here to inquire about your daughter, Wu Meilian."
And noticing Luo Fei’s hesitation.
The elderly lady took a deep breath.
And seriously spoke.
"Officer, to be honest, although my daughter hasn’t contacted me actively, I can sense it. She probably ran into some trouble or danger unknown to us."
Hearing her analysis.
Luo Fei was somewhat surprised.
"Ma’am, I’m truly curious, how did you come to that conclusion?"
Luo Fei spoke with some bewilderment.
His face displaying curiosity.
The elderly lady patiently explained.
"Officer, I actually understand my daughter quite well."
"I know that once entangled in love, she’ll definitely cause some trouble and turmoil. Let alone the person she’s fallen for, Shen Liufeng, who is a complex individual."
Previously, Li Wanzhi had argued with her daughter.
She had repeatedly warned her daughter to be cautious of Shen Liufeng.
Unfortunately, her daughter didn’t listen.
Noticing a hint of amusement from the other party.
It seemed she had anticipated this outcome, viewing it as a foregone conclusion.
Luo Fei promptly agreed.
"Ma’am, rest assured. We’ll do our best to investigate the case thoroughly and uncover the truth to ensure your daughter’s whereabouts are found."
Observing Luo Fei speaking earnestly.
The elderly lady showed no particular opinion.
"Mr. Luo, while I don’t doubt you, the police have already investigated several times. The last time my daughter contacted me was over a year ago. However, I believe that something likely happened to her around that time, just unbeknownst to me."
